Characterization of hypothetical protein VNG0128C fromHalobacteriumNRC-1 reveals GALE like activity and its involvement in Leloir pathway of galactose metabolism

Abstract: VNG0128C, a hypothetical protein from Halobacterium NRC-1, was chosen for detailed insilico and experimental investigations. Computational exercises revealed that VNG0128C functions as NAD(+) binding protein. The phylogenetic analysis with the homolog sequences of VNG0128C suggested that it could act as UDP-galactose 4-epimerase. Hence, the VNG0128C sequence was modeled using a suitable template and docking studies were performed with NAD and UDP-galactose as ligands. The binding interactions strongly indicate… Show more

“…These in silico results could be used as indicators for establishment of actual function of proteins via experimentation and analysis. In a similar endeavour, our group has assigned the function of a hypothetical protein VNG0128C from Halobacterium NRC-1 as UDP-galactose 4-epimerase involved in galactose metabolism [ 5 ].…”
